Adapting to Change
Stirling Properties celebrates first-ever virtual annual honors event!
Stirling Properties celebrated its 22nd Annual Stirling Honors last Friday in a first-ever company-wide virtual format. The event recognized and distinguished the successes of Team Stirling and the company over the past year, despite recent challenges stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Stirling Properties’ President & CEO, Marty Mayer, served as the emcee for the presentation and discussed how today’s challenging landscape requires adaptability in our company and the commercial real estate industry. Mayer said, “Companies that can adapt and meet the changing environment will survive and find opportunities for success—this has always been one of our strong points. It’s one of our core values, a characteristic of our company, See Beyond the Present: We adapt and evolve for long-term sustainable success.”
He and Stirling Properties’ partners thanked Team Stirling for their hard work and dedication. Lynn Blanchard and Krystal Atkins were acknowledged as recipients of Stirling Properties’ most prestigious honor, the 2019 Exceeding Excellence Award, presented for extraordinary employee actions that exemplify the values necessary to further the success of the company. Brokerage Division Award recipients received recognition for Bronze, Silver, Platinum, Diamond, and Ruby production levels based on individual adjusted gross commissions from 2019. Special acknowledgment was also given to Rhonda Sharkawy, Senior Retail Leasing and Development Advisor in New Orleans, for achieving the Top Commercial Producer Award —this is the 5th consecutive year she has earned this accolade, producing over $1 million dollars in commissions.
